Whoa! Who knew... From the cruise ship we walked what seemed like forever to the city of Istanbul... along the water. So many people fishing off giant rock walls. What an old city, but with a modern feel. Mosques... underground, medusa... The GONG! The Bazar.. here you can shop till you drop!... from old world finds to American name brand merchandise, it's all here.

Never made it to this port :( THIS WAS THE ONE PORT I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO!. The water was to unpredictable, the ship was listing to it's side. The tenders couldn't have made it in, especially with elderly. I'll BE BACK!
